More quotes by Lord Byron
The lapse of ages changes all things - time, language, the earth, the bounds of the sea, the stars of the sky, and every thing about, around, and underneath man, except man himself.
Lord Byron
Death, so called, is a thing which makes men weep, And yet a third of life is passed in sleep.
Lord Byron
Always laugh when you can. It is cheap medicine.
Lord Byron
In solitude, when we are least alone.
Lord Byron
Do proper homage to thine idol's eyes But no too humbly, or she will despise Thee and thy suit, though told in moving tropes: Disguise even tenderness if thou art wise.
Lord Byron
Friendship is Love without his wings!
Lord Byron
We of the craft are all crazy.
Lord Byron
The Christian has greatly the advantage of the unbeliever, having everything to gain and nothing to lose.
Lord Byron
But words are things, and a small drop of ink, Falling like dew, upon a thought, produces That which makes thousands, perhaps millions, think.
Lord Byron
Yet he was jealous, though he did not show it, For jealousy dislikes the world to know it.
Lord Byron
Heaven gives its favourites-early death.
Lord Byron
I am never long, even in the society of her I love, without yearning for the company of my lamp and my library.
Lord Byron
It is useless to tell one not to reason but to believe you might as well tell a man not to wake but sleep.
Lord Byron
There are some feelings time cannot benumb, Nor torture shake.
Lord Byron
I am so convinced of the advantages of looking at mankind instead of reading about them, . . . that I think there should be a law amongst us to set our young men abroad for a term among the few allies our wars have left us.
Lord Byron
To chase the glowing hours with flying feet.
Lord Byron
The reading or non-reading a book will never keep down a single petticoat.
Lord Byron
Earth! render back from out thy breast A remnant of our Spartan dead! Of the three hundred grant but three, To make a new Thermopylæ!
Lord Byron
He makes a solitude, and calls it - peace!
Lord Byron
A change came o'er the spirit of my dream.
Lord Byron
